Prestige A/2 Compact Tall Cup: Full Output, Half the Footprint

When counter space is limited but your volume isn't, the Faema Prestige A/2 Compact Tall Cup delivers. This 2-group machine combines a space-saving compact design with high-performance output — Tall Cup clearance for larger specialty drinks, user-friendly LED controls, and efficient hot water management. The machine that proves you don't have to sacrifice capability to fit your bar.

The Problem & The Fix

Why Most Compact Espresso Machines Disappoint — And Why This One Doesn't

Compact machines trade performance for size

Faema engineering delivers full 2-group output in a smaller footprint

Standard cup clearance limits your drink menu

Tall Cup design fits larger specialty beverages without workflow disruption

Complex controls slow down your team

User-friendly LED controls make operation fast and intuitive

Hot water management is inefficient

Efficient hot water system keeps output consistent without waste

How It Works

The Prestige A/2 Compact is built for businesses that need the throughput of a 2-group machine without the counter space a standard 2-group demands. Faema has engineered the compact body to house the same reliable commercial systems found in its full-size counterparts — no shortcuts on the internals, just a smaller external envelope.

LED controls keep the interface clean and straightforward, reducing training time and operational errors. The Tall Cup clearance means your baristas never have to tilt a cup or work around the drip tray to fit a larger drink — the machine accommodates your menu as-is, during service.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Daily Cleaning

Wipe and purge the steam wand after each use to prevent milk buildup, rinse portafilters and filter baskets, clean the drip tray, and backflush the group head to remove coffee oils and residue.

Weekly Maintenance

Soak portafilters, baskets, and shower screens in an approved cleaning solution, inspect group head gaskets and screens, and perform a deeper backflush to keep internal components clean.

Long-Term Care

Maintain proper water filtration to prevent scale buildup and descale the machine as needed based on water quality and usage to ensure long-lasting performance and consistent espresso quality.

Power Requirements
  • Voltage: 220-240 VAC
  • Wattage: 2800 - 3300W
  • Electrical: Requires a 230V circuit (dedicated circuit strongly recommended)


Summary: This machine runs on a 230V power supply, making it ideal for commercial cafés, high-volume service, and serious espresso setups where stronger electrical capacity is available. With a compatible-watt draw, it should be connected to a dedicated circuit to ensure stable performance—especially if you’re running other equipment nearby (grinder, fridge, hot water tower). This setup is best for fixed locations with proper electrical infrastructure, rather than most mobile coffee carts where 230V isn’t always available.
